    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) plans to repatriate a sacred cultural item, a heraldic house screen associated with the Tlingit Thunderbird Clan, back to the Central Council of the Tlingit & Haida Indian Tribes. This item, integral to Tlingit rituals, was acquired by LACMA in 2017 after being auctioned and owned by a private collector. The museum is in consultation with Native tribes and descendent organizations, inviting any other claimants to contact them by February 22, 2021. If no additional claims are made, the item will be transferred to the Tlingit & Haida Indian Tribes as it holds historical and ceremonial significance.

    Simple Explanation

    The Los Angeles County Museum of Art has an important screen that belongs to the Tlingit people, and they are planning to give it back to them because it's special and should be with the tribe. They're asking if there's anyone else who believes the screen is theirs, and if no one else speaks up by February 22, 2021, they'll go ahead and return it to the Tlingit Tribe.
